drm_mode_cre...ace_property(9) π
okay so first things first β hi bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual π«Ά. The header up top clips the name all dramatic like (drm_mode_cre...ace_property(9)), but the full government name is right below, don't worry. β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
drm_mode_create_hdmi_colorspace_property β literally just creates the HDMI colorspace property. that's the whole gig. no cap. π
π SYNOPSIS π
int drm_mode_create_hdmi_colorspace_property (struct drm_connector
*connector , u32 supported_colorspaces );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
connectorβ the connector you wanna slap the Colorspace property onto. that's it, that's the target. πsupported_colorspacesβ a bitmap of all the color spaces this connector can vibe with. yes, bitmap, so it's one of those "each bit is a flag" situations. iykyk. π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so the way this works: a driver calls this the first time it's needed β not on some random schedule, not eagerly, just when it's needed β and then it must be attached to the desired HDMI connectors. like, that's not optional, bestie. desired ones. the ones you actually want. periodt. π
π₯ RETURN π₯
- Zero on success π (zero is the good one here, don't panic)
- negative errno on failure π β yeah, if it's negative, something went sideways, go check your
errno.
β SEE ALSO β
okay this list is long long β like, the whole connector cinematic universe shows up. respect the lore π§:
